“That's good to know,” the Guardian of Mount Kush said. “By the way, I need a lot of Spirit Stones urgently. Send

them to me as soon as you can.”

“Understood! I'll make the arrangements immediately!” Erebus replied.

Meanwhile, Sebastian's base was bustling with so much activity that there was barely any space left to walk.

Apart from Golden Cicada, the other Centurias of the Northern Faction had all turned up, which meant there were

more than nine hundred people.

Without further ado, the eight Centurions gathered in Sebastian's office for a much-needed discussion.

“Sebastian, why have you suddenly summoned everyone here? What's the matter?”

“Where's Commander Golden Cicada? Why isn't he here? Sebastian, are you doing this behind the commander's

back?”

“Come on. What are your intentions? Are you thinking of replacing Commander Golden Cicada? Is that it?”

Sebastian let out a deep sigh. “To tell you the truth, Commander Golden Cicada and his entire Centuria are dead!”

A stunned silence instantly filled the room as the Centurions stared at Sebastian in disbelief.

“Oh, you must be joking with us.”

“Sebastian, that's not something to joke about! Commander Golden Cicada won't let you off lightly if he finds out

what you've done.”

“As far as I know, no one in Centuria's district is Commander Golden Cicada's match.”

“Exactly. Not even Legatus can go up against Commander Golden Cicada and his Centuria! Besides, he's important

to Legatus, so there's no way the latter would attack him.”

“You'd better take your words back while you still can, Sebastian. You wouldn't want to incur his wrath, would you?”

Upon hearing the other Centurions, Sebastian sighed again. “I'm being serious. Why would I joke about this? I've

been to Commander Golden Cicada's base and... Never mind. I can't bring myself to describe the horrific scene.

You guys can take a look for yourselves.”

The next second, Sebastian played a video that showed the hundreds of severed heads in Golden Cicada's training

room.

After watching the video, the Centurions were stunned beyond words.

“Oh, my goodness! Those really are the heads of Commander Golden Cicada's Centuria!”

“Commander Golden Cicada's Centuria has been wiped out! F*ck! Who the hell did this?”

“I guess only Legatus is powerful enough to take down Commander Golden Cicada, isn't it?”

“But we all know how important Commander Golden Cicada is to Legatus. There's no reason for the latter to kill

him.”

“Based on our investigation, we have reason to believe that the prime suspect is Phoenix from the Southern

Faction,” Sebastian announced. “Furthermore, she launched a sneak attack on my base earlier in the day and

severely injured me. I'm pretty sure that she's the murderer.”

Phoenix?

The Centurions couldn't help but narrow their eyes in skepticism.

“From what I know, Phoenix's skills are nothing to write home about. She's definitely no match for Commander

Golden Cicada.”

“Moreover, this murderer has also slaughtered the entire Centuria. Since when is Phoenix that powerful?”

“That's right. The murderer has to be someone else. Let's think through this again.”

Just as the Centurions continued to chatter among themselves, there was a sudden knock on the door.

Sebastian's gaze instantly darkened. “Who's that? Didn't I say not to disturb us unless there's something urgent?”

“I-It's very urgent, Sebastian...” the subordinate at the door stammered. “Commander Golden Cicada is here.”

“Commander Golden Cicada?” Sebastian said with a shudder. “What? Isn't he dead?”

“Commander Golden Cicada is well and alive, and he has specifically asked to meet you.”

“All right. I'll be right over.”

Of course, that only left the other Centurions even more perplexed.

“You owe us an explanation, Sebastian. What on earth is going on?”

“Why did you lie to us when Commander Golden Cicada isn't dead?”

“Since Commander Golden Cicada is still alive, that must mean his Centuria is safe, too.”

“Come on. Let's report this to him! We'll let the commander decide what to do.”

Upon hearing that, Sebastian hastily explained, “The video I showed you guys is real. Commander Golden Cicada's

Centuria has been wiped out! I guess he must've survived the massacre... The thing is, I was in such a panic that I

didn't have time to identify all the heads. That's why I misjudged! Come on. Let's speak with Commander Golden

Cicada and find out what on earth happened.”
